On syntax of the written reports in the journalistic style
Hladíková, Helena ; Lehečková, Eva (advisor) ; Adam, Robert (referee)
The thesis provides a summary of knowledge about the syntax of reports in the literature and also describes the syntactic phenomenon in the written reports. Study data consists of reports about several important events in the period from January to April 2010. These reports have been written in the serious dailies, the chapter about headlines is partly reflected the tabloid press. In the first part I deal with a comparison of sections of literature devoting to journalistic language. Based on this comparison I conclude that the fundamental differences between the journalistic and linguistic literature lie in the way of giving information about the language and in the manner of distributing this information. The middle part is devoted to syntactic characteristic of the headlines from selected texts of reports. Essentially, I analyze the types of syntactic structures of headlines and the results from my analysis demonstrated that the predominant headlines are single clauses and that there is often a specific structure with a colon. The last section analyzes the construction of written reports and the occurrence of several syntactic phenomenon in the texts of these reports. According to my analyse, the compound and complex sentences are in the text more often than single clauses, in terms of textual...

Data mining from incoming e-mail messages
Šebesta, Jan ; Žemlička, Michal (advisor) ; Kopecký, Michal (referee)
We study possibilities of automatic sorting of incoming e-mails. Our primary goal is to distinguish information about oncoming workshops and conferences, job offers and published books. We are developing mining tool for extracting the information from data originated in profession-specific mailing lists. Offers in the mailing lists come in html, rtf or plain text format. The messages are written in common spoken language. We have developed the system so it will use text mining methods to extract the information and save it structured form. Then we will be able to work with it. We are examining how user handles the mail and apply the knowledge in the development. We solve the problems with obtaining of the messages, distinguishing language and encoding and estimating the type of message. After recognition of the transported information we are able to mine data. In the end we save the mined information to the database, which allows us to display it in well-arranged way, sort and search according to the user needs.

Koudelková, Kateřina ; Randák, Jan (referee) ; Hlavačka, Milan (advisor)
The topic of this diploma thesis is Daniel Sluníčko, From the Life of Prague Typographers. Its target is to show Sluníčko's life on the background of the 19th century.

Diploma thesis covers the old Christian tradition of just-war theory. This tradition, fully-established hence Augustine justifies and limits war. Having origins in a Hebrew thought and Old Testament, just-war theory has grown up from works of Augustine trough Gratian, Thomas Aquinas and Spanish scholastics to play a major role in establishing of international law as a specific field of science in a modern age. In this work I focused on primary texts of Bible, both Old and New Testament, writings of Augustine and Thomas Aquinas, Koran, as well as review of influential secondary literature, especially written by James Turner Johnson, George Weigel, historians like Edward Gibbon, Paul Johnson, Thomas E. Woods, thinkers like Roberto de Mattei or Michael Novak and documents like Documents of Vatican II., Catechism of the Catholic Church and others. Catholicism developed rich body of thought and numerous theories, attitudes on the moral problem of war and peace. Tradition of just-war thinking offers improving argumentation on morally responsible use of armed force, in both defensive and offensive wars. Just-war tradition offers criteria and their moral evaluation of just cause, just intention and legitimate authority and diploma thesis adds their confrontation with jihad's "holy-war" in Islam, humanitarian...

Representing Courtship and Marriage in the English Novel, 1780-1860
Vomáčková, Lenka ; Nováková, Soňa (advisor) ; Beran, Zdeněk (referee)
This thesis focuses on the motifs of courtship and marriage as experienced by the female characters in the novels published from the end of the 18th century till the second half of the 19th century. These novels include Evelina (1778), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Jane Eyre (1847) and The Mill on the Floss (1860). As all these novels are written by female authors, the thesis provides a unique female perspective of the issue. The chosen texts deal with the motifs of courtship and marriage, play with the conventional discourse, and at the same time challenge the established perception of the role of a woman in the process of courting. Besides discussing the novels, I explore also the way the themes of courtship and marriage are presented in the original 18th and 19th century literature. For this purpose, I scrutinized various conduct books and essays of the period. The first chapter of the thesis is introductory and explains the main ideas and terms used in the thesis. The second chapter focuses on the social background the heroine comes from - her family, character and education. Hence, the role of the family is discussed in reference to the process of courtship. Great attention is given primarily to the role of a father as a possible social guardian and the model of a future husband. The third...

Performance of hospital emergency team mass take in of patients separation for small, medium and big hospitals (local, district, faculty)
TOMÁŠKOVÁ, Lucie
The main objective of my work was to summarize entire information available about performance efficiency of rescue teams (hospitals) at massive reception of patients to hospitals. As a sample, the hospitals in South Bohemia were chosen, and that local, district and teaching hospitals as well. Even that each of the hospitals has their own traumatology emergency plan, you can hardly think of readiness without knowledge of the contents of the plan on the side of the individual administrators involved. In addition, the hospitals do not know accurate or theoretical numbers that would evaluate the performance efficiency of their rescue teams. I have collected the data from current operation of the hospital; from scheduled operation of the hospital under the conditions of massive reception of the likely affected; and from professional literature. Firstly, I focused on various causes of emergency or crisis situations, on classification of those, considering the place of origin, and on their sorting that is used as a base in order to activate the traumatology plan and the rescue team in the hospital. Secondly, I described the pre-hospital medical care at emergency and crisis situations that is covered by the medical rescue service within the Integrated Rescue System-i.e. the time before the traumatology is activated, and the people affected are received into the hospital. Thirdly, I worked with traumatology plans in the hospitals, explaining why they should exist in every hospital. After that, I described the traumatology plans of the individual hospitals that had been chosen as samples. (The Hospital České Budějovice a.s. is a teaching (big) hospital; the Hospital Tábor a.s. is a district hospital (medium type); the Nemocnice Prachatice a. s. is a local (i.e. small) hospital). Then, I processed the responses by head physicians in the trauma centres in the sample hospitals: I had asked questions related to their orientation and knowledge of the performance efficiency of their rescue teams and to activation of the traumatology plan of the hospital at massive reception of the affected. Finally, I confronted my results with the information in professional publications, especially in the article written by MUDr. Pavel Urbánek ``The Link-Up between the Pre-Hospital and Hospital Care in Case of Massive Disaster{\crqq}; then, I compared my results with the hospital medical care and capacity of hospitals in the Netherlands. In conclusion, I present my evaluation of the existing situation, following from the data and knowledge collected; there are proposals of my solutions as well.

Estimates in Survival Analysis
Čabla, Adam ; Malá, Ivana (advisor) ; Tomášek, Ladislav (referee)
This thesis introduces methods used in time-to-date analysis. It is written generally and so usable in dealing with any example. The thesis deals with problem of censoring, which means, that some observations occurred after the following, which is typical for the lifetime analysis. Methods mentioned in the thesis are nonparametric and parametric estimates of the survival function and their characteristics, and regression models, concretely Cox model and accelerated failure time model, which examine effect of the covariates on survival function. In the thesis is beside survival function presented hazard function, which express intensity of the analyzed event and cumulative hazard function, which is created as the name suggests by cumulative summation of the hazard function. Estimates of these functions are obtainable from survival function and for parametric estimate often exists formula resulting from parameters of used distribution. Empirical part of the thesis introduces influence of several different types and degrees of censoring on parametric and nonparametric estimates of the survival function, mean and median. The other empirical example is the usage of regression analysis on the data from the lungs cancer research made by Mayo Clinic.

Flyers in the Thirty Years War
Válek, Filip ; Kortus, Oldřich (referee) ; Čechura, Jaroslav (advisor)
The Thirty Years War (1618-1648) is one of the major events in both the European and the Czech history. It affected the whole of Central, Western and South Eastern Europe. The 1 i h century, however, did not see only ragging wars; it also saw the birth of Baroque culture in Bohemia. An essential part of the culture was art and the fine arts especially. In the fine arts the religious and social events of the era found their c1earest reflection. Moreover, fine art, for various groups of people, was a c1ear appeal to change their political opinions, systems of values and religious beliefs. The 1 i h century provided new impetus for the development of newspapers, brochures and leaflets; most of these were published in print. The majority of events which took place in Bohemia or outside of it were thought to have a major impact on history. This was very important for the then media, as it provided them with a reservoir of events to report on. In my thesis, I ex amine one type of printed reports, namely printed single sheets, which have been well preserved in sufficient quantity. Printed single sheets were used to convey emotionally coloured content to influence the warring parties of the Thirty Year' s War according to their author' s aim. In my thesis, I look at history through single sheets, which were mainly...
